So, the other day, my family and I were watching The Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe, and at one point in the movie, Jadis is wearing a shoulder guard that kind of reminds me of the feathered one on the Longtreader uniform.

I just think it's neat how many similarities I see between GE and stuff like LotR ( which we also watched over Christmas) and The Chronicles of Narnia. Hmmm. Tell me if you guys have caught ither things i havent noticed! Im super interested. I know Tolkien was S.D Smith's greatest inspiration, but I still just think it's neat how connected it all seems!

Picket and I both have a little bit bit2025 clinging to us still ;)

Here's the late christmas art! Also. I was gifted the Old Natalia series for Christmas, and I just finished!!

I want to do art of all of the best scenes from the three books, and I was wondering if you guys have any suggestions...? Again, have a wonderful year of new beginnings, my friends.

Happy New Year My Dear Bucks and Does!

May you all have a nice year of 2026

Merry Christmas, my fellow bucks and does!

So it occurred to me that if you were to write a *Green Ember* parody of “The Twelve Days of Christmas”, you could keep the “Ten lords a leaping” line:

Rake

Ramnor

Victor

Ronan

Hews

So, I don't know if everyone is tuned on internet trends but there is a trend (I don't know if it's still alive because everything lasts like 5 seconds in the internet) of something called aura farm. I can't really explain how it works but as a example of "aura farming" they use a image of King Baldwin IV from the movie Kingdom of Heaven. This one specifically

The context of the image is that there is a discussion within the army and he makes this pose for silence.

I'm rereading for the 3rd or 4th time Prince Lander and the Dragon War and on page 180, there is a discussion within Whitson's war council, mainly between Captain Walters and Chief Heckle, and Whitson just comes into the tent and raises his hand and everyone is silenced.

I know it's kinda stupid but I think it's a fun thing that…

Helmer couldn’t recall the last time he had been so happy. Certainly, in the years since he had joined the army of King Jupiter he had not known such celebration. It wasn’t that First Warren had no festivals of its own, or that his family never gathered for such meals. But since becoming a soldier, Helmer had always been conscious of the fact that he would soon be leaving for his next mission.

Sitting with Sigrid and the children, however, Helmer found himself able to let go of any such thoughts. The jubilation of the younglings was infectious, and their open-hearted welcome touched him deeply. And the obvious affection between them and Sigrid was also touching to see. Helmer found himself marveling at his golden-furred friend all over again.

It was undoubtedly this preoccupation that kept Helmer from noticing the new arrivals. Sigrid saw them first, and upon seeing her…

Here's Fleck Blackstar!!!

@Captain Shadow really inspired me to make this, and I had a lot of fun doing it! Thanks a bunch. :)

Also-- I get that he's not the most giddy rabbit ever, (give me a break, I've only read a bit of the Old Natalia) (I really want them for Christmas!!!) but this is kind of like an afterlife type imagery in my mind. Just... sailing the endless lake forever.....

I was reading The Voyage of the Dawn Treader when I made this, so there's also that. 😅😅😅

I want to ressurect these flags I made some time ago and with the forum somewhat more active, I decided to put them again.

@Shuffler :) kinda motivated me again so thanks.
